RE: filmscanners: Glass and Film
Really very simple; they use Anti-Newtonian glass as opposed to regular
glass for starters. They might also use an Anti-Newton Rings powder on the
glass between it and the subject being scanned.

I was wondering how hi-res flatbed scanners, like the Scitex Eversmart
avoids the Newton ring problem? We
have had several scans done on them, and there never seems to be a problem
with those very pesky Newton rings,
but many times when we try it at home ( on an admittedly cheaper) flatbed
scanner, it can be a problem.
